    Oil Filter For 302 - Fl1a Or Fl300?

    I always used FL1A, my 78 owners manual spec's FL-1, with 5 qts oil. However, every other resource (including Ford) seems to specify the short filter, Motorcraft FL-300. I know either will work, wondered if there is some advantage to the FL-300 (other than clearance). Maybe better flow? The...

    Wtb: '78 D7zc9104aa Aux Fuel Tank

    Fuel injection motor heads on carb motor?

    Can anyone tell me if 90's efi heads will work on an older motor, like a '78? I know they will bolt up, but how well will they work? I've looked all over the web, and the popular opinion is they work ok. I would think the efi heads would have different sized valves and chamber, but I am not an...
